I would think it will take more this year as the point crept is going higher. Probably allot dumping points as I will use 14 to draw a tag in unit that took 6 last ylear.

Looking for recommendations on fishing outfitter for 2024. Have been to Sitka Alaska many times and want to see some new area.

I drew the 4th season deer tag in 2016 with 23 non-resident points. Spent the week before the opener in the unit, and also with a friend a few years earlier on his hunt. If you look at the numbers the population is down alot since the early 2000's. During my hunt we ran into groups of...

He will apply for the muzzleloader tag too. I drew unit 10 about 14 years ago with 18 points and now it's 30 so unless your in that group you may as well use them up. Only hope is that everyone does the same that have more points so you could move up.

Unless a bunch of guys decide to apply for 61 with more points you will draw this year. My son has 27 points and you probably will lessen his chance of drawing. Good luck.

Contacted Diamond Outfitters and they have no restrictions on how many points you can have and still be part of their program. I think it was Chappell outfitting that has a restriction on how many points you can have.

I checked on it but since I have a enough points to draw in a couple of years I was not eligible to participate. You need to be in the system for a few years in order for them to make it worth their time.

Merry Christmas to all....celebrate the reason for Christmas!

When we first started going there it cost us a little over 2k per person but with covid and the fuel prices everything is higher. They are probably about as cheap as anyone when you consider what they provide. You could do like we did a couple of times, we flew to Anchorage and then rented...

Angling Unlimited in Sitka is about $3000. per person for 3 days of fishing. It includes lodging and a vehicle to use while you are there but keep in mind there are only about 15 miles of roads. They do provide breakfast to be prepared by you and of course lunch on the boat.

If Sitka would work for you then I can recommend Angling Unlimited. We have gone there for the last 8 years and have had great fishing. We go toward the end of August as the silvers are in at that time. We normally get limits of salmon everyday and of course halibut are easy to come by...

Thank you and congrats on a great bull!

What unit is that in? How many points to draw?

Where and with what outfitter?

Just curious as to what it scores.
